Wednesday, June 18, 2014 - Melvyn's 50th Birthday Bash (Hua Ting, Orchard Hotel): One of the best village wines I can remember ever drinking. There was an intensely perfumed nose here, full of sweet dark tones of blueberries and violets sprinkled with earth and violets and sweet spice - heady stuff. It was rich and complete in the mouth, punching way above its weight with full, deep flavours of ripe blueberries and cassis playing against an earthy backdrop. All this was framed by mellow acidity and soft, resolved tannins leading into a long finish littered with sweet violets and spice. A whopper of a Chambolle-Musigny, and drinking quite at peak. Yum.
